Although the goat's digestive system is similar to that of other ruminants such as cattle and sheep who are "grazers" and eat grass , goats are more related to deer who are "browsers". Goats prefer brush , trees and weeds more than grass. It is natural for them to nibble a little here and a little there.

Never make big changes in the way you feed a goat all at once , or feed large quantities of a new food the goat has never had before. To do this is to throw off the bacteria in the goat's rumen, which can cause the goat to bloat , or worse the rumen to shut down . When changing a goat's diet , do so slowly to give the bacteria in the rumen time to adjust.
